I have almost given up with 9.2 and am seriously thinking of going back to 9.1. Why?
I think that the fonts in 9.2 look terrible! They are thick, look rather pale in colour, and the edges are ill-defined. Installing the NVidia driver with YOU makes them look even worse. I have spent many hours trying to find the problem and solve it, but can't. I have now run out of ideas to try.
There are no font problems with 9.1, or with two other distros I run. These all look excellent.
the fonts look terrible - i agree : right after installation - but you can beautify them to your liking from the Control Centre -> Fonts.
This will not change the look of the fonts in Gtk apps.. when you get to this, you can look in the archives here for the solution.
Thanks, Ernest. The problem was caused by the desktop resolutions not having been set. They were automatically set correctly in 9.1. Cheers Keith
